The ARGUS Cycling Race in Cape Town in South Africa is organized by the Rotary Club Fremont of Cape Town and hosts about 30.000 cyclists. It leads from the center of Cape Town around the Cape Peninsula and is possibly the most beautiful cycling race in the world…
Distance is 109 km, 1.000 m uphill.
I think my first attendance was in 1992. Until 2020 I finished 11 times. in 2017 it was cancelled due to gail force winds and in 2018 I was there but could not start because of a bad flue.
They organisation is extremely professional and they provide super statistics:
